NAME
       mnc2nii	-  convert  a  MINC format file	to a NIfTI-1 or	Analyze	format
       file.

SYNOPSIS
       mnc2nii [<options>] <infile.mnc>	<outfile.mnc>

       mnc2nii -help

DESCRIPTION
       The mnc2nii command is used to convert  MINC  format  files  to	either
       NIfTI-1	or  Analyze  format.   The NIfTI-1 format was developed	by the
       members of the Neuroinformatics	Technology  Initiative's  Data	Format
       Working	Group  (DFWG).	 The  NIfTI-1  format  is  based upon the Mayo
       Clinic's	Analyze	7.5 format.

       The name	of the program is derived from the  common  filename  suffixes
       used for	NIfTI-1	and MINC files.	 NIfTI-1 defines two possible formats,
       a  "header plus raw image" 2-file format, and a single-file format that
       includes	both header information	and the	image data.  As	 with  Analyze
       7.5,  the 2-file	format consists	of one file with the suffix ".hdr" and
       another file with the extension ".img".	In NIfTI-1 single-file format,
       the two files may be combined into a single file	with a ".nii" filename
       suffix.

       In addition to the NIfTI-1 formats, mnc2nii can convert MINC  files  to
       the Analyze 7.5 format.

OPTIONS
       Note that options can be	specified in abbreviated form (as long as they
       are unique) and can be given anywhere on	the command line.

Output file format
       -dual  Save file	in NIfTI-1 two-file format (.hdr and .img)

       -ASCII Save file	in non-standard	NIfTI-1	ASCII file format

       -nii   Save file	in NIfTI-1 single-file format (.nii)

       -analyze
	      Save file	in Analyze 7.5 compatible format

Output voxel format
       -float Save voxels in 32-bit floating point format

       -double
	      Save voxels in 64-bit floating point format

       -byte  Save voxels in 8-bit integer format

       -short Save voxels in 16-bit integer format

       -int   Save voxels in 32-bit integer format

       -signed
	      Save voxels in signed (2's complement) integer format

       -unsigned
	      Save voxels in unsigned integer format

Other options
       -noscanrange
	      Don't scan data to determine valid range.

       -quiet Quiet  operation	-  do not print	progress or debugging informa-
	      tion.

Generic	options	for all	commands
       -help  Print summary of command-line options and	abort

       -version
	      Print the	program	and library versions and abort

KNOWN BUGS
       Current handling	of  NIfTI-1  qform  and	 sform	coordinate  transforms
       should probably be revised as the NIfTI group clarifies the correct us-
       age of these fields.
